Findings

Question No. 1

In accordance with this question, differing responses have been recorded. The variation in responses of each nurse can be attributed according to their roles. Research Nurse directly consults the physician who observes the patient, because the physician is the one who is responsible of prescribing medication to the patient. The Staff Nurse spends most of her time with other nurse because the patient requires comprehensive care. Administration Nurse is engaged with team members not related to patient care she responds to escort and messenger people, supply, housekeeping, pharmacy, and radiology.
